2010 XT shifter problem or just normal?

I just got a new bike with XT shifters. When I shift into an easier gear on the right shifter, usually under load or shifting fast, the paddle will shift one gear then it seems like it disconnects or skips. It doesn't happen every time, but the first time or two it happened I thought I had broken the paddle off, but it was fine. All other times the shifting feels great.
